proclaimed the values of the foreign
coins Of the world, to be taken in esti-
mating the value of all merchandise i'm

cipal changes from the circular of last
year are in the values of silver coins, the
price of sil,er having declined from IN
average of $1.03S14l per ounce fine to
81. 00s35, the latter being the average
price of silver In London for the three
months ending december 81, 1856, de-
cline of over three cents an ounce.
The values of the following coins
have been changed: Austria, form, from

The Embedded Frog Delusion.

One of the most remarkable fictions.
that has ever been perpetrated is that re-
lating to the frog in solid rock. The
story crops out every few years, or in
deed months, in the local press of this
country or Europe, the statement being
made that such woodchopper or
blaster had discovered frog or toad, as
the case may be, Embedded in the solid
substance, where it must hayc been for
hundreds or thousands of years, time.
being no OF, Get IN such cases. Some
years ago the laborers in blasting rock
at Central Park found q toad aftera blast
six or eight feet below the surface, in
crevice, and the report was circulated that
it had been there for 900 years. The
truth was that the animal had in some
way, perhaps at the time Of the blast,
found its way down into thecrcvice, and
this will probably explain all such cases.
To settle the question, some years ago
the late Frank Buckland instituted .
number of experiments that showed the
utter impossiblity of such an occurrence.
He had made number of receptacles of
stone, plaster and wood, initiating every
possible case that he had ever heard of.
In these he imprisoned toads, and in
every case they died very soon. Those
that lived the longest were where the air
reached them owing to the porous nature.

Feuimore Cooper on French Faces.

In 1927 Fenimore Cooper wrote, while
visiting Paris, the following remarks on
French physiognomy, and the article in
which they appeared has just been ex-
huned and printed in the Paris journals:
The French face rarely expresses inno-
cence IN its perfect purity. Even in child
hood there is a nameless something which
indicates that its celestial soul has come
down 10 inhabit the earth. In the young
girl Of the Gauls you never perceive any
thing other than a modest. amiable,
spiritual and an attractive woman. But

The Game Of "Kat-Knuppeiien." +"

Some Of the amusements en- ioyed by the
descendants of the water gcuzcn" or
rather barous, and chief among them
stands the play of ''Kat-knuppllen." 1t
b TO be met with in the hamletS around
Amsterdam. Two poles about sixteen
feet high are placed twenty feet apart; o
new barrel has two holes bored into the
heads, and a rope isput through the holes
and attached to the top Of the poles, al
lowing the barrel to swing about twelve
feet from the ground. Before placing
the barrel in this swinging position, a live
cat is put into it. Now the amusement
commences Twenty or thirty sturdy
beers pay the innkeeper-in front Of
whose hostelry the '.kat-knuppellen"
takes place-a certain entry fee. gener-
ally five Dutch cents. They take their
position about fifty feet from the swing
ing barrel, armed with clubs shaped
something like an American base hall i'm
plement; every man dra VS. a number, and
then proceeds according to enumeration to
ding his club at the barrel. The man
who hits the barrel with such force as to
break it apd allow the imprisoned cat to
escape rearives half the money paid by
the participants, AMI the one who throws
the club with strength sufficient to
canse the last piec" of wood to fall from
the rope is paid half of the remaining
money. the resi- going to he tavern
keeper. The terrified cries Of the inn
prisoned cat before escape is possible can
better be imagined than described, and
